Blue Monday?

Did YOU have a "blue Monday"?

I DID!

Not "blue" as in downcast or discouraged ...

NOPE!

It was VIVID BLUE!


See what I mean??

There were also bits of

WHITE


And a lotta


PINK!

Y'all know I love PINK!

and look how the tulips are
GlOWING
today!

So nice to have some sun for a change.

Heck with
peaches and cream ...

That's how I want
MY complexion to look!

And a special treat today?

The quince tree was blooming!
My gosh ..
look at all those blooms!

Just beautiful!

whether I need
space for introspection ...


or a bigger picture ...

there's nothing like
taking the garden path

.

To keep me blooming!

Hugs and here's to you finding a bit of paradise of your own!

  2. Hi Betty
    Thanks so much for leaving such a sweet comment about my Garden space. I'm so sorry I missed you - we were there later in the day.

  3. Oh, my dear friend - The gardens at Deepwood have reinvirogated my tired soul today! This tired but happy grandma needed to see the beauty that is just across the street from the hospital where my new grandbaby was born last night! As I drove out of the parking lot and past Deepwood near midnight, it was all dark and I felt sad that I couldn't stop and see the gardens in the moonlight. If there had been any moonlight. I will wander through the beauty soon. Thank you for sharing it and lifting a bit of my tiredness today. And I'm ready to talk about our thoughts for sharing the gardens at Deepwood. Time for a new venture, me thinks!

  5. I thought I recognized the gardens. I love blue in the garden, except for those pesky bluebells. They spread everywhere.
